[edit] Wolfpawz

Closed per WP:SNOW at 3/6/1. 21:51 26 April 2008. Non Bureaucrat Closure. Pedro :  Chat  21:51, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Wolfpawz (talk · contribs) - I am an applicant for admin with a technical background. I have been programming in PHP, VB, and C# for over three years. I have had an account on wikipedia for 3 years or so (my old account is no longer in-use). I am a CVU member and I currently work to restore articles that have been wrecked by trolls.

[edit] Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:
1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?
A: I would mainly prefer to work with anti-Vandalism as I do now. I have the most skills and experience in that area.
2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
A: I have edited a few articles that have to do with the autism/aspie spectrum to ensure a neutral view point.
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
A: N/A.

    [edit] Support
    1. weak support. Dan Beale-Cocks 19:05, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
    2. Moral Support - Give yourself another 4-5 months of editing here, learn about the Wiki. Visit as many areas as you possibly can. Read WP:ADMIN and possibly get yourself an WP:ADMINCOACH. Cheers. Wisdom89 (T / C) 19:08, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
    3. Moral Support Given enough time and experience, you too can become an admin. Just not yet. --SharkfaceT/C 20:00, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
    [edit] Oppose
    1. Oppose sorry, but with only 12 edits (apart from this RfA) there is nowhere near enough evidence available to judge if you have the knowledge of policy and ability to act on it in an appropriate manner. I suggest you withdraw this request, since it is highly likely to fail. Keep making constructive contributions to the encyclopedia, and consider an editor review in 3-4 months to see how you are doing. Best, Gwernol 18:22, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
    2. Agree with Gwernol. Keep up your good editing, and come back to RfA in a few months. Assuming you continue to make solid and productive contributions, I'll be happy to support at that time. Cheers, Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 18:26, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
    3. Oppose. Gwernol's right, you should stick around on that account for a while longer so we can see that you are a civil, hard working admin-hopeful. Come back in six months or so, and I'll definitely support you next time. Regards, weburiedoursecretsinthegarden 18:48, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
    4. Oppose per Gwernol. Macy (Review me!) 19:10, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
    5. Oppose more project experience needed. Return to RFA in a couple of months, and perhaps then I'll support you. Better luck next time. SpencerT♦C 21:26, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
